Rachel Pfau
Grief Tender, Somatic Therapist
Offering Somatic Therapy & Sacred Touch for Women Healing from Trauma, Disconnection, and the Deep Ache for more
Welcome, brave heart.
The path you’re on takes immense courage, to pause, to listen, and to turn inward toward the places that have long been unheard. I honour you for arriving here.
As a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner and Registered Massage Therapist (RMT), I offer trauma-informed, body-based healing for women who are ready to reconnect with themselves and reclaim a sense of wholeness.
This work is not a quick fix, it’s a sacred and steady unfolding.

Where we begin.
To support this deep work, clients are seen weekly over several months, allowing us to build the safety, consistency, and relational trust your nervous system needs to soften, regulate, and restore. Through guided somatic awareness, co-regulation, and presence, we begin to unwind patterns of holding, numbing, and disconnection—patterns that were once protective, but no longer serve.
Many ask what a session may look like.
The truth is, there’s no such thing as a typical session. Our work begins slowly, sitting together—gently building the inner skills and capacity needed to tend to grief and heal trauma. Sessions unfold at a steady, supportive pace. When touch is introduced, it’s done with great care—often just ten minutes—and in that brief window, something meaningful often reveals itself. Each session offers a space to attune, deepen trust, and meet the body’s truth as it’s ready to be seen.
You are not broken. Your body remembers.
And together, we’ll listen.
